Install an IR Remote App in android phone. The app link below worked for me to remove the fpa lock on. Configure the App for your RCA TV. Set TV as Device type, RCA as the brand. and choose the model (e.g., TV 20 F420T) also, select the Alternate IR Driver.

All the options of the command may appear in a list form. Close that and an actual remote with buttons should appear.

Then Power your tv will turn ON. Press the Menu. Pressing the Channel Down/Up Button to navigate to Preferences. Press OK button on the screen.. Then Navigate to FPA Lock. Press OK again. THis will turn the FPA Lock to Off.

Child Lock allows you to lock the buttons on the front of the TV.Press MENU to see the main menu.Press CH+ or CH- to highlightPreferences.Press OK to enter the Preferencessubmenu.Press CH+ or CH- to highlight FPA(Front Panel) Lock.Press VOL+ or VOL- to turn on or offFPA Lock. Choose On to disable all thebuttons on the front of the TV. FPA LockOn will appear on the TV screen eachtime you press buttons on the front ofthe TV. You can still operate the TV withthe remote control. You can still use thePOWER button on the front of the TV, butonly to turn off the TV (not on). Set FPALock to Off to cancel this feature so youcan use the buttons on the front of the TVagain.Press MENU repeatedly to exit themenu or the menu will automaticallydisappear within a few seconds if nobuttons are pressed on the remotecontrol.I hope this helps and good luck!

If the front panel lock is on, you will need a working original remote (or a universal remote properly programmed for RCA) to turn the set on. The IR receiver is next to the buttons on the fromt but the RCA IR receivers are very reliable, and I have yet to see a bad one in a modern RCA TV. Once you turn the set on by remote, you can enter the menu and turn the FPA off.
